Synopsis:

Rarely has a writer and thinker of the stature of Ayn Rand afforded us access to her most intimate thoughts and feelings. From Journals of Ayn Rand we gain an invaluable new understanding and appreciation of the woman, the artist, and the philosopher. We see Rand as an untried screenwriter in Hollywood, share her painful memories of Communist Russia and her struggles to bring them to dramatic life in We the Living. We witness the step-by-step emergence of the characters and plot of The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, along with the years of painstaking research that would imbue her novels with their powerful authenticity. And we are with her as she explores the basic questions of philosophy and builds the foundation of what will become the towering philosophy called Objectivism. Including descriptions of the projects cut short by her death, Journals of Ayn Rand illuminates the mind and heart of an extraordinary woman as no autobiography or memoir ever could. On these vivid, fascinating pages, Ayn Rand lives.

Book Description: Plume, 1999. Paperback. Book Condition: New. Rarely has a writer and thinker of the stature of Ayn Rand afforded us access to her most intimate thoughts and feelings. From Journals of Ayn Rand, we gain an invaluable new understanding and appreciation of the woman, the artist, and the philosopher, and of the enduring legacy she has left us. Rand comes vibrantly to life as an untried screenwriter in Hollywood, creating stories that reflect her youthful vision of the world. We see her painful memories of communist Russia and her struggles to convey them in We the Living. Most fascinating is the intricate, step-by-step process through which she created the plots and characters of her two masterworks, The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, and the years of painstaking research that imbued the novels with their powerful authenticity. Complete with reflections on her legendary screenplay concerning the making of the atomic bomb and tantalizing descriptions of projects cut short by her death, Journals of Ayn Rand illuminates the mind and heart of an extraordinary woman as no biography or memoir ever could. On these vivid pages, Ayn Rand lives.Free Delivery Confirmation. Fast Shipping! Personal, Prompt, and Friendly Customer Support. Satisfaction is Guaranteed!. Bookseller Inventory # 1204050049
